RE: [RC] sad story (not) and natural toughness - Kristen A FisherUp at a recent OK ride there was a guy there that wasn't familiar to too many people who was in the 50 and running up front. [Many already thought he was crazy as he slept in the bed of his truck the night before when it got down to maybe 10?] Some of the other 50 front runners expressed some concern about that but his horse [big QH] was doing fine as was he. He wasn't too familiar with endurance per se, but some good hearted folks guided him along that day, and as it turns out he not only top tenned but got high vet score [after getting quite lost for a while]. As it turns out, he rode this horse open range from OK up to Nebraska [I think] and back and is definitely one heck of a horseman - he just wanted to try something new with his horse.

Long days, multiple jobs, only routine good care, like the energiser bunny, they just keep going and going. Many work for years, into upper teens and beyond. They come from durable stock. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
